Neighborhood Trick Or Treat!!

At 5:30pm we met Marco, Stacy, fireman Antonio and doctor Luca to trick-or-treat around our neighborhood. We planned to visit our neighbors and then head over to the neighborhood across the street after. I left all of our lights on and our container of candy by our front door in the off-chance that we would have trick-or-treaters. Unfortunately CK had a speech scheduled in Dallas and wouldn't be able to join us until around 8pm. The first house we visited was Trent's next door to us and he had to open his bag of candy in order to give our kiddos candy. Sofia and Antonio had their "trick or treat!" down but Olivia was a little less sure of her words. Buddy, our little hot dog was happy to go along for a walk and kept trying to get an extra sniff of all that candy. From Trent's house we continued down the neighborhood and about half were home. We stopped and visited with Mitzi and Bill and also with Jackie and her mother-in-law, who was dressed up as a black cat. She actually got down and played with the kids, who loved it. Sofia acted like a dinosaur crawling around on all four while Antonio ran around and Olivia watched, not sure what to think of the huge black cat. Soon, Olivia joined in the fun and after a bit, Sofia's stegosaurus tail tore! She was devastated and thankfully Stacy explained that Dr. Marco could fix up her tail without a problem. Marco took Sofia to his house where he taped up her tail and fixed what could have been a very upsetting situation!

After the tail fixing, we visited Todd and Dana's house and their awesome Halloween house. Brandon was still decided what to be, so we waited and he joined our group as we headed over to Ann's house for treats. After stopping at Ann's house, Marco and Luca headed home and the rest of us walked over to the neighborhood across the street to further our trick-or-treating.
